That's exactly it!
Thanks guys. I'm still struggling with the whole I need meds even after all these years and all of the forced hospitalizations...I keep thinking...it's not me, it was me...that feeling that if I'm bipolar I'm defective...if I need meds then I'm defective..if I don't take meds then I....round and round I go.
